Palestinian death toll in Gaza nears 23,000

TEHRAN, Jan. 07 (MNA) – At least 22,722 Palestinians, including 9,600 children, have been killed by the Israeli army since the start of the war, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.

Real numbers are believed to be much higher as the authorities in Gaza have been unable to regularly update casualty numbers since last November amid a collapse of the enclave’s health system, Aljazeera reported.

The ministry said in a press statement that the Israeli army killed 122 Palestinians and wounded 256 others during the past 24 hours.

This brings the total number of deaths to 22,722 and injuries to 58,166 since Oct 7, 2023.
